SEIZURE (1974)
A critical and cultural commentary by Chas Klimczak
Oliver Stone’s directorial debut, SEIZURE (1974), played to a very limited Times Square audience until being re-discovered in the age of video. Billed as a horror-comedy, the comedy seems more accidental than deliberate, and overall, that hurts the movie. I saw this film on video in the mid-80s sometime after Platoon started getting accolades, and I laughed through most of it. It wasn’t until adulthood that it became sort of scary, because by adulthood you realize that most adults are as weak willed as the adults in this movie about being manipulated into doing terrible things to save your soul. I like it more now than I did then, and it is definitely an interesting film if you want to invest yourself, but this one is definitely not for everybody, and definitely not for people looking for gore over suspense.
With Seizure, Stone follows the trend of serious 70s filmmakers by exploring personal losses of freedom and freewill to invading forces with purposes greater than our own. The biggest flaw in this movie is the casting, because the villains are too perfectly cast, and it’s almost impossible to take them seriously. With a little depth of thought and personal investment into the film, the villains reach a level of effectiveness, but that kind of investment is too hard when what you really find yourself wanting to do is laugh. Because the victims are people of low standards and willing to sell each other for the price of living to see another meaningless day, it’s never scary when these people are in trouble. They come from the same DNA that victims from Rob Zombie movies come from, so it’s very easy to not care about them at all.
The horror content in the film also suffers because the main character turns out to be a detestable, frightened wimp, so it’s never scary when he or his family and friends are in jeopardy. It kind of made me feel like, “Well, mister, that’s what you get for being a wimp, and lady, that’s what you get for being his wife, and kid, that’s what you get for your mom not getting you the hell out of there as soon as she realized your dad was a wimp.” If it turns out that Mr. Stone’s point is what I just said, he did a great job selling it. I’ve seen it sold more effectively and with less toil in other films. That means this one is for completists and historians, and not for general audiences.
The problem presented at the film’s conclusion is thoughtful, and because open-endings seem to work in horror films, the ending is the most noteworthy part of the film. It suggests that one of the most terrifying things about being alive is our dependency on each other, and the fact that there are mindless and purposeless variables that can effectively cancel all of your life’s plans without warning gives the film some social clout. I give Seizure two solid slashes out of five because on a base level, if you can keep from laughing, this movie will give you something to think about long after it’s over, and that’s what good art should do.

Seizure (film)

Plot

Horror writer Edmund Blackstone (Jonathan Frid) sees his recurring nightmare come to chilling life one weekend as one by one, his friends and family are killed by three villains: the Queen of Evil (Martine Beswick), a dwarf named Spider (Hervé Villechaize), and a giant scar-faced strongman called Jackal (Henry Judd Baker).

Production

Star Mary Woronov would later claim that one of the film's producers was gangster Michael Thevis, who partially bankrolled the film in an attempt to launder money, as he was under investigation by the FBI.
